Rendez-vous at the Mont Sainte-Odile

Looking out over the plains of Alsace, Mont Sainte-Odile was an influential convent for many centuries. While still attracting numerous pilgrims throughout the year, there is also a beautifully converted hotel at this sacred place once dedicated to Odile, the patron saint of Alsace.

However, Mont Sainte-Odile welcomes everyone, even non-believers, who simply wish to profit from the natural woodlands surrounding the area. Hikers can stride along the sign-posted paths and discover in particular, the pagans' wall built around 1000 BC, whose origins have given rise to a number of mystic speculations!
